Building from the 4.3 source on Win7 64 bit.
When right clicking a node in the editor, and choosing the option to see it’s definition in native code, nothing happens.
Before I built from source it would launch Visual Studio, but now nothing at all happens.
I’ve tried it with several nodes, and verified that Visual Studio is set to be the default code editor.
Hi Hyperloop,
Is this the option that you are referring to?
If so, that option was removed from the Engine in 4.3.0
Are you saying that you can still see that option in 4.3, but it doesn’t work?
My apologies, I intended to type 4.4, not 4.3, I’m sorry about that.
I’m building from the 4.4 source, and yes, the option is still there but non-functional.
It’s also present in the current 4.4.3 editor downloaded from the launcher.
I did some more testing with this and noticed that I was somewhat incorrect in my earlier statement. The option was not removed from the Engine in version 4.3. Instead, it was changed so it was only visible in projects with a Visual Studio solution (code-based projects, or Blueprint projects that have had code added to them). I had previously been testing in pure Blueprint projects where the option is no longer visible.
In regards to correct functionality, every time I tested it, Visual Studio opened the header file where the node is declared. Is this not happening for you?
